Mr.
Payne
gave
figures
for
the

River
each
year
from

to

Robert

that
he
had
paeked-aalmon

the
Columbia
River
from

and
there
were
no

then.
Mr.
Payne
replied
that
he
knew
per
sonally
that
traps
had
been
operated
there
for
19
years.
He
marvelled
that
the
fishing
on

up
so
well
but,
nevertheless,
inspite
of

it
was
a
